Chapter 99 Bait (Subscribe)

In the training room.

Wu Tao sat cross-legged on the futon, his eyes looking at his nose, his nose looking at his heart, his five hearts facing the sky, and he practiced the Three Yang Gong to refine the spiritual energy in the purple spirit pill in his stomach.

As the spiritual energy was refined and absorbed, Wu Tao's pale face slowly recovered.

After refining three purple spirit pills in a row, Wu Tao's face returned to normal color.

He stopped practicing the Three Yang Gong and felt that his energy was sufficient, but there was nothing unusual on the surface. The trauma on his soul had not recovered and he needed to rest slowly.

Although it was not serious, it was impossible to heal it by refining three purple spirit pills.

Unless it was a pill to repair the soul.

But that kind of pill was very expensive.

Wu Tao's eyes moved slightly, and his mind sank into the sea of ​​​​mind, and he clearly sensed the situation inside. The coffin nail was still quietly suspended in the center of his mind, as if this mind was his territory.

And the two strange insects were still suspended in the corner of his mind without knowing whether they were dead or alive.

He used his divine consciousness to approach the two insects and sense them. He found that the two insects were not dead and still had life in their bodies. They should have fainted.

Thinking of what happened in Fenghua Street just now, those casual cultivators died silently one after another. This insect should be the culprit.

Such a fierce creature devoured the soul silently. How could Wu Tao dare to keep them in his mind.

What if...

Wu Tao hurriedly used his divine consciousness to move the two insects out of his mind, but just as he made the move to move them away, the coffin nail shook slightly again, and he saw his mind rippling like a lake.

His consciousness was driven out of his mind.

"This... This is my mind, not yours..." Wu Tao was extremely helpless.

But no matter how helpless he was, there was no way. He had no way to deal with this coffin nail.

"But, having said that, I was able to escape today because of this coffin nail that saved my life. Otherwise, I would have ended up like those casual cultivators."

Wu Tao couldn't help showing a trace of relief on his face.

Speaking of which, this coffin nail was obtained from the casual cultivator when he first killed someone. At that time, his curiosity killed the cat. Even if he was cautious and tried it with rabbit blood first, the coffin nail was still a step ahead and shot directly into his mind.

It occupied his mind from then on.

At that time, he thought he was going to die.

But the coffin nail just lingered in his mind and did not cause any harm or trouble to him, so he let the coffin nail linger.

Unexpectedly, this time it was a blessing in disguise.

Saved a life with the coffin nail.

"This coffin nail must be an extraordinary magic weapon." Wu Tao thought secretly.

Since the coffin nails couldn't let him drive away the bug, Wu Tao just let it go. As long as he was safe, it didn't matter if there were two more bugs in his mind. After all, the coffin nails had been lingering in his mind for more than two years.

If it wasn't for this danger, even he himself would have forgotten the existence of the coffin nails.

After escaping from life-threatening danger, Wu Tao began to review the situation.

He was thinking, what exactly was that bug? Was it made by the devil cultivator?

He was just an equipment refiner, and he usually came into contact with knowledge about equipment refinement, so he didn't know about this strange bug.

"Let's follow the previous way of dealing with it. Stay dormant for a few days, pretending that nothing happened, and see what the general wind direction is..."

Wu Tao made a decision quickly.

The first day.

Wu Tao didn't hear any news.

He began to wonder. Yesterday, before he left Fenghua Street, more than a dozen casual cultivators died. It was impossible that there was no news about such a big thing?

He felt more and more that there was a lot of water behind this matter.

This made him calmer and calmer, and he felt more and more that he should act as usual and not act rashly.

After another three days, there was still no movement.

It seemed that those dead cultivators were not dead, or someone covered up the news of their death and sealed it off.

Who could do it?

In Wuquan Mountain's territory, only Wuquan Mountain could do it.

Even if the cultivators of a street disappeared overnight, Wuquan Mountain, as the absolute ruler of this immortal city, could do it easily.

"So, this matter is related to Wuquan Mountain?"

Wu Tao was secretly shocked and became more and more careless.

Originally, he thought that after the news passed, he would at least buy some books about monsters to check what kind of monster this strange insect was that could eat the soul.

But now the situation is more abnormal, the deeper the water.

Wu Tao gave up this plan directly.

Fortunately, he still lived as usual these days, and the strange insect in his mind was still unconscious, but the coffin nails vibrated from time to time, allowing Wu Tao's spiritual consciousness to wash over the strange insect.

Wu Tao didn't know what the coffin nails were trying to do.

"Forget it, as long as it doesn't affect my daily life and daily practice." Wu Tao lay down and didn't care anymore.

However, his soul was still in a state of cultivation, so his life was more restrained, one day at a time, no more.

The next day, after breakfast, Wu Tao and Chen Yao came to the store. Before the store opened, they saw a circle of casual cultivators on the street. Someone posted some notice on the wall.

A bunch of people gathered around to watch.

Wu Tao faintly heard the discussion of the casual cultivators watching.

"Wanfa Pavilion is holding an auction?"

"When was the last time Wanfa Pavilion held an auction? It seems to be two years ago..."

"Look, these auction lists make people greedy when they see them. If I didn't have spiritual stones, I would have to participate in one..."

Wu Tao did not step forward to join in the fun, but opened the shops and prepared for the day's business.

However, when he opened it, a cultivator wearing Wanfa Pavilion store clothes came in and said hello: "Hello, the shopkeeper. I am from Wanfa Pavilion. In three days, Wanfa Pavilion will hold an auction. , there are various precious techniques...the secrets of the four arts of cultivating immortals...and some heretical secrets..."

"This is a simple auction roster."

After saying that, the Immortal Cultivator from Wanfa Pavilion handed over a paper roster.

Wu Tao took it and asked doubtfully: "Fellow Taoist, didn't you post the news outside? Why did you go to distribute the auction list in person?"

The Immortal Cultivator of Wanfa Pavilion laughed happily and said: "The roster posted is for those individual cultivators. Taoist friends have opened such a large magic weapon shop. Since they are distinguished guests of Wanfa Pavilion, of course they have to deliver the roster to their door in person. ”

"Fellow Taoist, please forgive me for my tight time, so I won't interrupt you any further. If you, Taoist, have seen the list and think there is someone you like, you are welcome to come to Wanfa Pavilion to participate in the auction."

"Walk slowly!"

Wu Tao sent the other party away, sat back on his chair, opened the roster and looked at it...

After flipping through a few pages, they all contained some secrets on exercises and spells during the Qi Refining Period. However, when he turned to the eighth page, his eyes focused, his heart turned, and he thought:

"Is this a coincidence? Or..."

On this page, there is a secret book printed impressively.

The secret book is called "The Secret Book of Strange Insects".
